Please help me out. I am currently new in PL/SQL. I have a table in my Oracle DB with the column names and data as indicated in the attached Sample_Data.csv file.

I need to achieve the following on the table;
A procedure that query the table, starting from the first row and check if the (Deal_Type) column is "Fixed Call Money" then go to the next row, if on this next row the (Descriptn) Column is "Place Money Reversed" and the (Amount) value on this row is equal to the (Amount) value in the previous row, it should update the (Descriptn) value to "Place Fixed Money Reversed". If not it should go to the next row and check this same condition.
The procedure should continue this to the end of the row in the table.

Thank you,
Austin Olojede
